Merry Christmas!

We were a little early this month with people being busy getting ready for Christmas, but we had a very enjoyable meeting with mince pies and Christmas cake too. There was a lot going on, so this is a bit of a picture heavy post!

The competition this year was on the colour theme black, white, silver, grey and white; there were some fabulous entries but the winning one was Jackie's.







Other entries:




















The Travelling Books made a return; it was lovely to see some of the new work that has been done, lots of different techniques and inspiration. We're setting them off again in January. Here's a very small sample of what participants have been up to:














And last but by no means least we were able to have a really good look at Cas Holmes piece for the Page 17 project. This was on display at the Knit and Stitch and is on it's way to The Lund Gallery via Clare R with a detour to our meeting. Many thanks go to Cas for allowing us to have her work for the day.

Coming Home to Skipton

Here it is, the World Premier of out latest collaboration with Virpi Kettu of Kettu Studios! This is the animation we made with St Stephen's cubs (who were very inventive!) and then the work several of us did on the large map of Skipton. The map itself isn't quite finished yet but we hope you enjoy the video.
